Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to grommet-type joints for electrical connectors, and to electrical connectors which are sealed by means of such joints.
- Grommet-type joints commonly used in the art are arranged in dedicated rear skirts of connector housings and held in place by a grid, which bears on the grommet rear side and which is releasably fastenable to the housing.
- More specifically, the invention relates to grommets comprising
- a plug member having a front side and a rear side, and a plurality of through passages for wires, said passages extending in an axial direction from the rear side to the front side, and
- at least one peripheral flange, which projects outwards from said plug member, said flange being provided to sealingly engage a peripheral inner surface of a connector housing.
- In such known grommets, the peripheral flange is formed by a peripheral lip which radially projects from the outer surface of the plug. The peripheral sealing contact with the inner surface of the housing is thus made in an axial section which is comprised in the section where the passages are individually sealed on the wires.
- With such grommets, the peripheral sealing and the individual sealing are mutually influence, whereby it is made very difficult to adapt one particular grommet design to various housing designs.
- Moreover, it is made difficult to optimize both peripheral sealing features and individual sealing features of such grommets.
- It is an object of the invention to provide an improved joint for electrical connector of the above-defined type, which overcomes at least one of the above-mentioned drawbacks.
- Accordingly, the invention provides a grommet-type joint of the above-defined type, wherein the flange axially projects rearwards from the rear side of the plug member, whereby the contact area of the flange with said inner surface is at least partially offset with respect to said rear side in the axial direction.
- In addition, this feature makes it possible to provide the individual sealing section close to the terminal accommodating chamber, while the peripheral sealing is provided in a functional housing area, the dimensions of which are less critical.
- The invention will be better understood on reading the following description of one particular embodiment of the invention, given as a non-limiting example.
-
FIG. 1 is a partial exploded view of an electrical connector provided with a grommet joint of the invention; and -
FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the assembled connector parts shown onFIG. 1 , in the axial median plane II of terminal accommodating chambers. - A connector comprising a grommet-type joint (hereafter “grommet”) according to the invention is illustrated on
FIGS. 1 and 2 . This connector is of a type used in an automotive application, and is intended to mate with a counterpart connector (not shown). - On the Figures, the mating direction is referenced as X axis, which is oriented from the connector towards the counterpart.
- The orientation or position terms used in the present description refer to this mating axis X. In particular, the terms “forward” or “front” read as oriented in the mating direction.
- The multi-way connector 1 shown on the Figures comprises an
insulating housing 3, wherein a plurality ofterminal accommodating chambers 4 are formed, agrommet 5, and arear grid 7. - The connector also comprises a plurality of
terminals 9 crimped at the end ofrespective wires 10, and fixedly arranged inrespective accommodating chambers 4 of thehousing 3. - Only one of the terminals is shown on the Figures.
- The connector also has a secondary locking device 11 (shown in use on
FIG. 2 ), which is mounted and fastened on a front section of thehousing 3. Said secondary locking device is provided to ensure that theterminals 9 are in a proper functional position in theirrespective chambers 4, and provides a high retention force of the terminals in the respective chambers. - The
housing 3 has a generallyparallelepipedic front portion 21, wherein theaccommodating chambers 4 are formed as through passages, and arear skirt 23. - Said
rear skirt 23 mainly consists in a peripheral outer wall, which is generally parallelepiped-shaped and which projects rearwards and outwards from the rear end of thefront portion 21. Theskirt 23 defines an inner recess, opened at the rear end, for accommodating thegrommet 5 and thegrid 7. Theskirt 23 has an innerannular surface 25 formed between a rear innerperipheral surface 27 and a front innerperipheral surface 28 of a lower section, and defining an axial abutment. - The
housing 3 is preferably integrally made of a plastic material. - The
grid 7 is also preferably integrally made of a plastic material, and is essentially made as a plate having throughaxial passages 34 corresponding to thechambers 4. Thegrid 7 also has locking means 35 provided to releasably fasten the grid in theskirt 23 in its use position. - The
grommet 5 essentially comprises aplug member 41, and aperipheral flange 43 projecting from theplug member 41. - It is integrally made in a resilient elastomeric material.
- The
plug member 41 has a substantially parallelepipedic shape, with opposedrear side 45 andfront side 47, and aperipheral surface 49. Theperipheral surface 49 is designed to fit in the frontinner surface 28 of the skirt. - The
plug member 41 is formed with through passages (through holes) 54 corresponding to and aligned with therespective passages 34 andchambers 4, in use configuration. Thepassages 54 thus extend axially from therear side 45 to thefront side 47 of theplug member 41. - The
plug member 41 has a pair of annular, axially spaced apart,inner lips 57, provided in eachpassage 54, said inner lips thus defining two deformable narrow sections. In use, theinner lips 57 sealingly engage the respective wire and provide inner individual sealing on wire at said narrow sections, as shown onFIG. 2 . - The
flange 43 projects outwards, both radially and axially, from theplug member 41. It has aperipheral surface 59, which is substantially parallelepipedic in shape, and a peripheralouter lip 61, which radially projects from saidperipheral surface 59. - In use, as can be seen on
FIG. 2 , saidouter lip 61 defines the contact area of theflange 43 with the housing rearinner surface 27 and the peripheral sealing section on thehousing 3. - The
flange 43 has aninner plane surface 63 which is inclined with respect to the X axis, whereby the flange has a generally triangular cross-section. - The
grid 7 has a correspondinginclined surface 65, sloping forward to the X axis, and provided to engage thesurface 63. Thegrid 7 is also formed withprojections 67 projecting perpendicularly from theinclined surface 65. - Referring to
FIG. 2 , showing the connector parts in use configuration, it should be noted that thegrid 7 axially bears on theflange 43, while thefront side 47 of theplug member 41 axially bears on an annular inner shoulder of thehousing 3. Theflange 43 also comes into abutment on theannular surface 25. - The
grid 7 is fastened in the housing in an axial position where theinclined surfaces projections 67 engaging thesurface 63 by penetrating the latter. - The
grid 7 thus provides a slight axial compression effect on thegrommet 5, and forces theflange 43 to a slight radial expansion, whereby thelip 61 engages theinner surface 27 under a gentle pressure. - It will be appreciated that, in use, the peripheral sealing section is rearwards offset with respect to the
rear side 45 of theplug member 41 in the axial direction X, and with respect to the individual inner sealing sections.
